I saw this at LGW a few years ago; while putting my shoes back on, etc, the elderly lady behind me in the security line got in trouble for having a bar of soap without a baggie. The poor dear was a bit frail and hard of hearing, and kept trying to make sense of "soap=liquid=danger", but it was confiscated anyway.

She walked away embarrassed that she'd done something illegal but still not sure what it was.
